Disneycub does Disney in December Part 7

[disneycub]

Today we did the Backstage Magic Tour....

I don't want to spoil it for everyone else who is planning on doing the tour, but let me just say that it was WELL worth the money. By the end of the day, my feet were screaming, however.

To give a general description, the tour allows you to see backstage of some of the attractions in Epcot, MGM, and the Magic Kingdom. You visit the Utilidors, Costuming, Hair and Makeup Departments, parade floats (the Electric Light Parade Floats are too cool!), and many of the other "nuts and bolts" departments backstage.

Our CM tour guide, Susan, was helpful, knowledgeable, and at times very irreverent and funny. We really enjoyed our day.

Tomorrow: A whirlwind tour of Epcot and Animal Kingdom to see the attractions we've missed.

Expenses:

Tour: $350 (give or take)
Dinner: $10.00 (offsite.....way offsite)
I have bought sooooo many pins that I'm almost afraid to total them up. So I won't!

I'd love to hear more about the backstage tour, Steve. Some of us will probably never get to do it. sniff, sniff, whine, whine

Is the tour really that expensive? Was that for 2 people? Does it include lunch? Park passes?

Please tell us more, Steve. You could include a disclaimer for those who don't want to know.
